Coldplay change Wembley dates due to Tube strike
"In a statement on their website, the band said "impossible" to get 82,000 fans to and from Wembley Stadium without London Underground services. They added: "Therefore no event licence can be granted for the nights of 7th and 8th September." The band said to avoid cancelling the gigs altogether the Sunday 7 September show will move to Saturday 6 and the Monday 8th September show will move to Friday 12."
"Coldplay said all tickets will remain valid for their rescheduled date and fans can use existing tickets. They added: "Any ticket holders who are unable to attend their rescheduled show can get a full refund on their ticket, and are requested to contact their point of purchase before 12:00 BST on Tuesday 2 September." Returned tickets will be sold from 11:00 on Wednesday 3 September."
Coldplay rescheduled the final two London dates of its Music of the Spheres tour because a London Underground strike would make transporting 82,000 fans to Wembley impossible. The nights of 7 and 8 September lost event licences and were moved: the Sunday 7 September show moved to Saturday 6 and the Monday 8 September show moved to Friday 12. All tickets remain valid for rescheduled dates. Fans unable to attend may request a full refund by contacting their point of purchase before 12:00 BST on Tuesday 2 September; returned tickets go on sale at 11:00 on Wednesday 3 September. Other scheduled nights will proceed, preserving ten Wembley concerts.
